The rev hang will bever be completely gone because Honda purposely tuned it that way. They’ve actually kinda solved the carbon buildup issue that DI engines have by keeping the revs up so that the amount of gas in the PCV gets burnt up a bit more. Thus reducing the carbon buildup. So yea, they...

If you care about performance, look at Motortrend’s comparison of the 11th si vs 10th. 10th outperforms it in pretty much every category. Looks are obviously subjective, but its cool that you now have sporty, boy-racer looking si or a more modern, mature (almost german looking?) si. Something...

Motortrends results suggest the 11th gen loses around the track and on the strip. 11th gen just doesnt grip like the 10th did. Thats why its a hard choice. You’re making a sacrifice in performance with the 11th gen. The question is, do you get enough comfortability and tech to make up for it?

Check what is the first number/letter on the vin. If it says J then it was made in Japan.

Its just confusing to see what the direction for this car is. If they had kept the old features + the 11th gen features, then you could say “Honda is going for a sporty, comfortable, usable daily driver”. And if they removed the features but improved the performance of the car, you could say...

MotorTrend tested the new si and compared it to the 10th gen and it actually performed worse in every category. Slower 0-60, 60-0, less average g’s on the figure eight, and slower time on the slalom track. It doesnt perform better. Until we get other reviewers showing us actual empirical...

Motor Trend says the 11th gen also handles worse than the 10th gen. It did worse on the 60-0, slalom and figure eight track, it couldnt reach the average g’s that the 10th gen did. 10th gen also doesnt reach 60 in 2nd gear, so they’re both the same there

Motor Trend says the 11th gen is a downgrade in pretty much every way. Slower 0-60, longer 60-0, lower average g’s on the skidpad and slower on the figure eight test. Also Ososik did a few runs where the 11th gen had trouble against a 10th gen. We need a side by side comparison. Not sure im...

Couldnt have put it better myself, it really is a shame. Only thing that makes sense is that the upcoming integra will be the si we all wanted. Of course that will also come with a significant bump in price though, sadly.

The car will perform the same or MAYBE slightly better, but overall it will not be much different than a 10th gen. Handling was already really good on the 10th gen, so dont be swayed by the “20% stiffer” bs, the improvements will be minimal if at all, and nothing that a few cheap mods wouldnt be...

Why the full camo if its gonna look just like a regular sedan? Also not saying it will be the fastest or most powerful si basically confirms this gen will be a letdown. 10th gens gonna keep value

So sedan integra basically confirmed

Agreed, i think if they are truly going to stick to the original DNA of the integra then it should be a 86/brz competitor, which is what concerned me because its starting to feel like the si’s days are numbered. I can see honda dropping it entirely and just sticking with the type r. Even the...

Ah gotcha. Still, these are definitely exciting times for honda fans

They haven’t announced any details, just announced it was indeed returning and being revealed in spring 2022. I would HIGHLY doubt Acura wont offer it in a 2-door variant and with an optional manual trans. They said it “will be returning to the Acura lineup with the same spirit and fun-to-drive...

So with Acura announcing the return of the Integra, i cant see this meaning anything but trouble for the civic si. Do you think Honda will nerf the si in order to keep it from taking some sales from the new Integra? I think this makes sense and explains why Honda hasn’t really improved the si...

The average owner wouldnt even notice the difference between the two, except for lsd. Bigger brake rotors? Unless you’re tracking it. Dampers? Many get coilovers anyway. You would need to track both to really feel the difference between the two. Use the price difference on some suspension...

Im honestly very disappointed with this new gen. Of course from a business perspective i can understand not bending to the enthusiasts demands, but i really wanted a hatchback si. But they way its looking, i dont even think the si will get a power bump and might be slower than the 10th gen...

Or even just a touring. Its really not much of a difference, a simple tune would make them even

So far the sedan and now the hatch look to be slower due to increased weight and no power bump. I hope the si doesn’t suffer the same fate.
